The Operative Group arose from the need of the Rioja wine sector to find a solution to the problem of the heterogeneity of wines resulting from the problems of the soils of the region’s vineyards.
News, June 2021.
The VitiReg project continues to make progress in its implementation and the consortium’s assessment is that the project is making good progress towards achieving the objectives initially proposed: to establish new regenerative viticulture techniques that will serve to improve both soil quality and grape quality.
During this milestone Encore has been working closely with the partners, carrying out maintenance tasks corresponding to the stations, reviewing soil moisture data and comparing between them.
It has also included within the irrigation environment a new calculation related to evotranspiration that will allow comparing direct values coming from soil moisture with indirect calculations.
An important commitment has also been made to training, with more than 30 seminars in which the existence of the project, its main objectives and preliminary conclusions obtained to date have been communicated to the attendees.
